Board Structures & Role Definitions
Board Structures & Role Definitions
Project details
What we need
- Document outlining relationship of board to your organization and metrics of board success
- Document outlining scope of roles within board, including empty seats if applicable
Additional details
Our organization has a great board with some great people, but we want to expand our reach within our organization! We are looking for someone who can help us further define the board roles and find ways to engage our board in a deeper way.
We would love to outline their roles and expectation in a much clearer way, so that we may also be able to create better structure for the board and ourselves.
What we have in place
- We currently have our basic guidelines for the Board Members, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have our ideas of what we would like to engage them in, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,882 , allowing us to focus on extending our reach through forging new contacts we become connected with.
With a Board that is more engaged and active, we believe we will be able to multiply our efforts, as we will have a much greater reach if the Board is more engaged.

Our mission
Empowering immigrant, minority and indigenous leaders to fight poverty and injustices through small-sale, grassroots community efforts by empowering leaders to be the change-makers their communities need.
What we do
Solutions to poverty and injustice must be led by people from within the community. We help people build their skills for leading social change locally. Cultivate exists to empower & equip community insiders and their allies through leadership development and capacity-building programs to transform their communities through asset-based community-led development. We work with people domestically and internationally to help them launch and lead nonprofit organizations (or NGOs, INGOs, or charitable organizations) which address their community's struggles against poverty, oppression, racism, injustice, and marginalization so that they can be community change-makers.
Testimonials
Paul has been great to work with. Though things have gone slowly because of us, he's been patient. He's given us great ideas and feedback for how to operate our board more effectively, conducted an insightful survey, and hopefully we'll put to practice his advice! Highly recommend him to others.
